    This document discusses the use of drones for 3D surveying. It describes how drones can be used to rapidly map large areas using sensors for real-time 3D mapping and simultaneous localization and mapping. Drones allow for acoustic mapping by recording and mapping sounds while flying low and slow. They can also collect air samples at different altitudes and locations for analysis of gases, microorganisms, and other factors. Some challenges of drone surveying include needing open land for takeoff, accessibility to remote areas, transportation logistics, and wind resistance.

    3D DRONE

    SURVEYING
    WHY TO USE DRONE??
    CURRENT DRONE SURVEYS

    • A Winged structure
    used to cover farm &
    forest.
    • It has the capacity to fly
    high & fast.
    • As they move fast they
    are great for covering
    more areas.
    HOVERING VTOL DRONES
    • It doesn’t have any doesn’t any
    minimum speed & it can travel
    at a speed you write when
    someone dictate
    • It doesn’t have any specific size.
    •
    3d MAPPING
    • Precise 3D flight control
    + S.L.A.M
    + New light weight sensors
    = Real-time 3D mapping
    SLAM

    SIMULTANEOUS LOCALIZATION & MAPPING

    • Real-time mapping of the


    drone’s environment
    • Can be used for collision
    avoidance without a priori
    knowledge of the environment
    ACOUSTIC MAPPING
    • Flying low and slow means you
    can record & map sounds

    • Copter acoustic signature is


    fairly consistent (~4kHz), easy to
    filter out

    • Recurring population surveys


    AIR SAMPLING

    • Samples of air from specific


    altitudes with timestamps,
    temp, pressure, humidity…
    • Gases (e.g. SOx, NOx)
    • Microorganisms
    • Realtime analysis or sample and
    analyze later
    CHALLENGES FOR DRONE SURVEYING

    • TAKE OFF:In the case of fixed-wing drones,


    selecting a suitable location is very difficult, as it
    requires a vast stretch of open land.
    • Accessibility: Isolated and remote areas are the
    most difficult to map and ensuring accuracy in
    mapping is even more challenging.
    • Transportation: In order to tap the complete
    potential of the drone, it should be used at regular
    intervals and the movability should not be
    troublesome.
    • Wind: Wind resistance is a major obstacle in the
    path of drone deployment and its
    maneuverability. A drone with a higher wind
    resistance can be deployed more frequently,
    increasing the possibility to execute the project
    on time.
